a PnfernnI Rastrictinn.

The only farm product which the govern
ment permits to be grown and not sold is
tobacco. 1t can be grown in all the states
but can be sold only In those that may have
dealers officially pasted with the proper
label. Who cares to grow product that
cannot be sold9 Therefore, in twenty
states farmers can grow a few plants for
their own use, but are efrectually restrained
from producing crop for sale.
There is piece Of unique oppression in
the tax itself that nobody takes time to
realize. Half Of the crop is exported, and
after the farmer, the shipper, the railroads,
and other go-betweens have rendered their
bills, the foreigner pays s. (as in the
past year,, while the government levies
tax on the other half intended to be used
by Americans equal to The entire cost Of that
which goes to the foreigner. That is, the
dealer pays for the tobacco and then is COM
PEELED to pay the whole over again to the
government, while the foreigner pays only
once. This is paternal proceeding with
vengeance-petting outsiders and punish
ing at home. 1t looks like petty spite at
the tobacco grower, for the government
don't know what to do with the money
after 1t is collected.
There ought to be revolt in Virginia,
Kentucky, and other states, that feel this
burden and injurious restriction worst,
against leaders who insist on continuing
this exceptional and utterly unnecessary
tax. And there will be.

In this unsettled state of the
weather spring overcoats are
just in order. One day cold
enough for an ulster and the next
proba bly, fine enough to do with
out any kind of overooat; but
there's the rub. Is it safe to do
1t We say no, and we speak
from experience. The spring
overcoat was invented and in
tended for just such "pet days"
as we are now being favored
with. Not heavy enough to en-
cumber YOU by it's weight, but
perfectly safe to preserve an
even temperature. The spring
overcoat from being q luxury has
become a necessity in our
chapgeful climate.
SAKS AND COMPANY.
We could dwell longer on the
merits of this most useful gar
ment, but we take 1t for granted
you need one; therefore, we will
talk with you about the merits
of the particular ones we have
prepared for you. In style, tone,
and perfection of flt our spring
overcoats stand alone. There is
no house in America prepared
to show you as great q va
riety Of kinds and patterns from
the plain black suitable for cler-
gymen and mon of settled taste
to the ultra stylish buff or cream
color.
